The 1 inch bore is a 93 cobra master cylinder. 1 1/16 is the 94/95 gt one. A booster is probably not a bad thing to get while you are in there. The stock booster is pretty small and not meant to deal with rear disks... The cobra booster is ideal because it is a tad smaller than the gt booster which helps you squeeze it behind the shock tower.
